PLEASE NOTE: The Steam Locomotive #15 repairs are underway. No date has yet been set to return the locomotive to service. Our Diesel Engine #6 will pull the train on excursions until such time as our Steam Engine is repaired.

Safety precautions and health guidelines are in place for the benefit of both crew members and our passengers.

Volunteer FAQ

There is no minimum number of hours required.

No, but we encourage you to have a voice by joining the organization. You will then be welcome to attend meetings and vote.

You must be 14+ yrs. to volunteer. All minors must have parental consent.

We have many volunteers who have favorite events, such as The Polar Express, Eggspress, or in the gift shop and greeting the Dinner Train guests. Other volunteers prefer brush clearing, rail-tie replacements or working on the rails & train cars.  These do not require long term commitments. We will happily work around your time constraints, and welcome you when you have the time and desire to help.
